  • Demonstrate ability to lead and manage projects, working within agreed deliverables, key milestones, project methodology, quality assurance and control strategy.
  • Understand economic appraisals (MCM, B£ST etc).
  • Have experience in optioneering and schematic design.
  • Possess the soft skills to successfully deliver public and statutory consultations.
  • Knowledge of Flood Risk Assessment, Natural Flood Management and Sustainable Drainage techniques is also desirable.
  • Hold chartered status from an appropriate institution (C.Eng or C.WEM).
  • Hold an MSc\MEng and\or PhD focussed on either hydrology, hydraulic modelling, water resources or other applied environmental science subject.
  • At Sweco we don't limit ourselves to traditional approaches – we collaborate across the business to create and deliver truly holistic solutions with our clients that address , capture the power of , and make our societies more .
